Divyadaan re-opens

Divyadaan began its new academic year on 11 June 2010, with Fr Ajoy Fernandes, Vice provincial of the Mumbai province, presiding at the inaugural Eucharist.

Fr Robert Pen, Principal, read the annual report, and Fr Edison Fernandes gave the inaugural lecture, summarizing his PhD thesis on discrimination suffered by foreign students in the Philippines, and applying it to formation.

The number of students is down this year - somewhere between 50 and 60. But the new feature is the presence of the Capuchin students, with their own residence on the campus. A new beginning.
